Mercedes-Benz EQC
Starting at $68.895

Highs Plush cabin, refined handling, costs less than some competitors.
Lows Some rivals offer quicker acceleration, shorter driving range than some competing models, infotainment system's touchpad comes with a learning curve.
Verdict The EQC isn't the quickest pick in its class, but it's an excellent choice if you're looking for an electrified SUV that rates highly for comfort and luxury.

Overview
A growing number of carmakers offer electrified transportation, and Mercedes-Benz had planned to enter the fray with the EQC before pulling the plug on its electric SUV in early 2021. Mercedes-Benz was careful to say that the EQC could be introduced to the U.S. in the future, but for the time being it will remain an option only in overseas markets. The EQC would have been a compact SUV that offered seating for five. Its fully electric powertrain would have delivered quiet performance, along with the crisp acceleration that's part of the package with many luxury EVs. Its cabin looked appropriately deluxe, with high-gloss plastics, attractive textiles, and modern design. Overall, the EQC's blend of Mercedes-Benz opulence and eco-friendly electrification would have made it an attractive pick for green-minded luxury-SUV buyers.
What's New?

The Mercedes-Benz EQC was initially intended to be all new for the 2021 model year, but unfortunately that plan has changed and the German automaker has decided not to bring the EQC to market in the United States.
Pricing and Which One to Buy
Progressive: $68,895
Premium: $73,265
Advanced: $77,615

The Mercedes-Benz EQC's Progressive trim would have come with enough standard features to keep most luxury-SUV buyers happy. All models come were going to offer a sunroof to let natural light into the cabin, and rain-sensing wipers to keep the windshield clear on stormy days. A power liftgate would also have been standard, along with LED headlights.

EV Motor, Power, and Performance
The EQC would have paired two electric motors with a lithium-ion battery. A one-speed direct-drive transmission was used to power to all four wheels. This powertrain would have provided a total output of 402 horsepower and 561 lb-ft of torque. We never had the chance to test the EQC, but Mercedes-Benz estimated that it would have made the sprint from zero to 60 mph in 4.8 seconds. That would have put it behind its key rival in this segment, the Tesla Model X. Tesla claims a zero-to-60-mph time of 4.4 seconds for the Long Range model and 2.7 seconds for the high-performance variant with Ludicrous mode engaged.

Range, Charging, and Battery Life
We expected the EQC would have delivered a driving range of 200 miles or less. That would have put it well behind the Tesla Model X, which can travel for more than 300 miles on a single charge. It's perhaps this shorter driving range that ultimately led to the decision to cancel the EQC for the United States.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The EQC's cabin would have provided more outright luxury than buyers will find in rivals such as the Tesla Model X and Jaguar I-Pace. The construction was solid, the execution was impeccable, and the quality of the materials used was above reproach. The high-quality cabin is yet another reason to be disappointed in the EQC's cancellation. Mercedes never disclosed final cargo capacity for this SUV. However, as a reference point, the GLC-class upon which the EQC would have been based provides about 19 cubic feet of cargo space behind its rear seats.
